Australian Jack Miller who races for the Caretta Technology-RTG FTR Honda team was again the top Honda rider in the Moto3 class at the Dutch TT on Saturday.
Miller claimed a fine seventh place, and was still in strong pursuit of the leading group while also fighting off the attentions of compatriot Arthur Sissis.
The battling pair were comfortably clear of a massive mid-field battle, where Honda riders played a leading role.
‰ÛÏThe bike was really good for the first eight laps and I had a good start," explained Miller, "but I got stuck behind Arthur Sissis for a few laps and we lost touch with the leaders.
"I destroyed the tyres after ten laps, and I was losing the front all over the place. There was another good battle with Sissis at the end, and I managed to fight him off.
"I‰Ûªm pretty happy. The bike worked great, and we got a decent finish and were top Honda at a track I don‰Ûªt like very much.‰Û
